To get some fresh air once in a wile it's good to cross the border and head north to the Netherlands. Besides, it's also a good opportunity to purchase delicious "drop" aka sweet and salty licorice which you cannot find anywhere else and eat some fresh fish.
We did all this over the first weekend in November, enjoying the luxury of a holiday home including a sauna, 5 minutes walking distance from the beach. It was very windy as you might expect at this time of the year but at least the first day we had wonderful sunny weather and spent a lot of time outside. The second day - well, let's say it was less sunny, or to be more precise: we got wet down to our underwear in a downpour of dimensions that I haven't seen in a long time.
Still, it was a lovely weekend and it's good to know that this beautiful beach is less than 2 hours drive away. And I'm sorry Belgium, as much as I love you, but your coastline just doesn't compare!

so toll ist es in Holland. Dann braucht man ja gar nicht so weit zu fahren.
